From a historical perspective, not only the persecution, but the preservation of the Jewish people demonstrates the miraculous as one tries to grapple with the question of why. Consider their contemporaries in the Old Testament. How many Edomites, Ephrathites, Midianites, Ammonites, Moabites, Sabeans, Cushites, Jebusites Amalekites, Canaanites, Hitties, Horites, Kenites, Perizzites, Girgashites, Philistines, Babylonians, Chaldeans, Sumerians, Kenizzites and Zidonians are still a distinct, named people group today? The answer is none.
As Biblical Christians, we would do well to support Israel and the Jewish people, particularly if we are living in the End-Times.
